Which Billy? Mar 15

That would be fun to see. I don't think I'm going to get out there to see my third show until maybe June or July. Good to hear that Colin did well in his debut. And I certainly hope to hear reports of the possible "hoopla" of the anniversary show! Anyone heard any more news about the Toronto/US run being planned? Very anxious for that to happen smoothly! k

I don't know if this is the right place to post this - but it's the best I could find right now, and at least it seem's I'll have a receptive audience.
